Hi, I’m Noa!

I'm formerly known as nano-noa (tba)

I’m 23 years old, a sapphic, a (wannabe) bookworm and a big introvert like most us of here.

I like Downton Abbey, Jane Austen, Stranger Things, Moon Knight, Heartstopper, SheRa and Percy Jackson.

And if it's not that, then I'm prob reblogging/posting something gay/queer.

I wrote a ronance ficlet and an adhd!Robin headcanon

noa reads -> I'm a book lover and every once in a while I blog about it

noa loves jane austen -> let's be real this one's obvious

This captures everything I love about being online

This reminds me of the time that I asked if anyone had resources on the history of Shinto and while nobody had book recs, turns out an actual Temple Maiden followed me on Tumblr and was down to chat.

An Interview with Richard Siken

[heathcliffcathy-archive-deactiv]

Medievalists know that if they claim to have found 'homosexuals' in the Middle Ages they will provoke cries of outrage, and nothing else they say will be heard. So they avoid the term. Thus Allen Frantzen, on the very first page of Before the Closet: Same-Sex Love from Beowulf to Angels in America, declares categorically: “I call this a book about ‘same-sex love’ because the obvious choice, ‘homosexuality,’ is, for periods before the modern era, inaccurate. ‘Homosexuality’ and ‘homosexuals’ were not recognized concepts in the Middle Ages.” Apparently, the same is not true of 'heterosexuality' and 'heterosexuals.' Frantzen does not hesitate, throughout his volume, to oppose 'same-sex relations' to 'heterosexual relations.' The result is a Middle Ages that would make Pat Buchanan jump for joy, one from which all the homosexuals have been banished and only heterosexuals remain. This should give one pause. If homosexuality was not a 'recognized concept' in the Middle Ages, then heterosexuality wasn’t either.

The 'hyperspecific situations' polls are really once again highlighting that native English speakers tend to forget that 'foreign' doesn't mean 'non-English' or 'non-American'

"Did you watch a foreign language movie in the past three days?" Yeah I watched the foreign movie "The Martian" with foreign actor Matt Damon

[eastern-lights]

Op why would you hide this is the tags

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

in the midst of capitalism, fanfiction and archive of our own are always unconditionally and endlessly free. love, joy and passion, shared among human beings, are always unconditionally and endlessly free

[doctor-donnas]

this is definitely not a link to a google drive with the first season of The Other Bennet Sister

it would be absolutely terrible if people were made aware of this and would share it

[id: a photo of Toni Morison, with her quote across it, which reads “it’s not possible to constantly hold onto crisis. You have to have the love and you have to have the magic. That’s also life.” End id]

They wouldn’t be trying so hard to keep us from our joy if joy were not liberation.

Can you imagine how stressed Katara would've been by the time she had two kids with Aang and neither of them were airbenders

Like I know he wouldn't be MAD about it but just imagining being in her situation has me so stressed out

Also Aang was lowkey kind of weird for not bothering to immerse Bumi and Kya in airbender culture even though Air Acolytes were a thing and showed that having airbending wasn't a requirement for being part of the culture
